Lyndsey started her blog, Not The Blueprint triggered by her divorce and a passion to share her story to help others impacted by infertility. This lead to a feature in the Huffington Post, speaking at Belong Con on the power of sharing our stories and qualifying as a Performance Coach.

Her drive to inspire, support and champion those who have found themselves at a different pace to their peers and in need of connection led her to create Connected Brighton, the Social Concierge service that supports local.

Lyndsey is also the co-founder of The Single Sessions, a dating events brand, and hosts the Brighton Business Show on Radio Reverb.

She’s been featured on Heart Radio, The Argus, Brighton Journal, BN1 Magazine, Good Vibes Podcast, Insane in the Fem Brain with comedian Rich Wilson, Sussex Business Times, the County Business Podcast and recently won the RWC Entrepreneur of the Year 2022 award.
